Сomplete genome sequence of <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i> I-118, a wine strain isolated from Rkatsiteli grapes in Uzbekistan

We report the complete genome sequence of the wine yeast strain <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i> I-118. It was isolated from yeast sediment formed after spontaneous fermentation of Rkatsiteli grapes and is used to produce white wines. Genomic data provide the basis for linking the genotype of this strain with its oenological properties.
